No Mouth guard? No Game! –  a reminder to all parents and underage players. It is now compulsory to use a mouth guard in all football games and training sessions from 1st January 2013. Please ensure that you have one in your gear bag at all times. It would be advisable for all adult players to get used to gum shields also as it will be compulsory for them in a year’s time.
